Alan Cynic Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 As long as he's just watching that's OK!My mum used to do the ouija thing years ago. She says that they had sceptical friends once who sat it out, but asked the 'spirit' to name their dog...the board came up with what looked like gobbledygook, but the 2 friends were gobsmacked, because they were Welsh, and it had spelt out the dog's name (which was Welsh, obviously).She fell out of the habit after being contacted by her late father, which upset her.

SeaOfEnergy Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 i dont think there the kind of thing that should be messed with lightly.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Agreed. Me and my friends did a ouija board in a 'haunted' house when we were about 15/16. Some weird shit happened, I was so scared I started crying like a little bitch, tho looking back what little I can remember may just have been tricks of the lights and scared kids imagining shit but it was freaky. I used to live in a house where a lot of weird stuff happened - tho I never saw an actual ghost (but my mate did) I'll post some of it later.

Aileen Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 There is the face of a ghost in the wall of St Machar Cathedral There are three big stained glass windows up behind the altar and on the wall just to the left of the left-most window inside, about halfway down you can see the face of a ghost.Obviously this is just the cut of the stone, but churches are pretty creepy anyway so it still gives you a bit of a shiver.

Guest Savant Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I went up there on my own one day - it's a pretty freaky place but I dunno if it's haunted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or she's delluded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HateEvent Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 Did a Ouija board when I was 15 at an old freaky house on Polmuir Road. We were talking about how weird and eerie this picture of an old woman in victorian dress was. The girl who's parents owned the house said that the pic had been there since they had moved in 8 months prior. Something ended up happening that was all pretty spooky and then the pic fell off the wall and smashed. Scary shit at the time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sloth Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I did a ouija board on my own in my old flat. Nothing much happened. It was probably a really stupid thing to have done after all the stories I have been told about ouija boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Neck Man Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 Done a Ouija board when I was about 16 and apparently, once a year, Satan shags everyone in hell up the arse with a spikey cock.According to Sid Vicious, anyway!

Guest idol_wild Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Definitely ouija. It is derived from oui (French for 'yes') and ja (German for 'yes').So, in essence, it is a yesyes board.I'm sure you all knew that, however.

belladonnaleaves Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 I don't really believe in the whole ghost thing. Seems to me our own psyches have ghosts enough of their own. I thought i saw a kid my own age (when i was about 6) sitting on the edge of my bookcase in my room. I remember seeing him and being scared to properly breathe for ages. I mean then i thought it was a ghost, but now i'm sure it was a dream. Reminds me of my cousin staying over and telling me wasps would fly in and sting me if i didn't keep my mouth shut when i was asleep. She was evil. On the other hand my mother's great uncle and aunt lived in an ancient farmhouse in the highlands about 50 miles or so from Aberdeen. On some nights when all the family where around, they swear to this day they heard something. Apparently they would hear the latch in the side door go, someone shuffle in noisily (as though tired after a long day in the fields) He or she would sit down on a stool (that was in the hall) and yank their boots off before (i assume) disappearing. It's great to hear stories like that with your grandfolks and aunties etc around you. Especially when it's a dark winter night outside with cold and rain. I remember talking excitedly about "supernatural echoes" on those occasions, which i'm sure was something i heard on the cartoon version of "Ghostbusters" Campfires are another good occasion. But to me, stories are enough. The imagination is enough. I don't need these things to be what we discern as "tangible". I just love the feeling of fear, the tingle and the adventure. Ghosts really are there. The imagination is a powerful being all of its own. If you've tried any hallucinogenic then you know how it is possible to see things that aren't really "there" but in that situation you believe them to be. Surely it's possible that anxiety, lonliness and and (slight?)hysteria might produce the same effect. I've used the ouija board over a crypt once in Peterculter and we recieved the text "sight unseen" But the situation and the presence of a particular essence of mind were probably to blame. Certain folks covet that experience, wish of it and experience something. I wonder how we did cope before the invention of fire for instance. Perhaps that presence of all encompassing darkness with no hope of solution produced the experiences now told in our "modern" selves.

EchelonDivision Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 There are green ladies and white ladies everywhere it would seem.I remember being in cub scouts and camping in Templars Park. There was a green lady there - never saw one though. Would definitely like to see a ghost though.The Warlock/Wizard (Alexander) Laird of Skene once got his coachman to ride across the Loch of Skene and asked him not to look back. The coachmans curiousity got the better of him and he looked back to see the Laird sitting beside a hoofed man with striking white eyes. The Laird practised the black arts and studied the occult in Spain. He was followed everywhere by two ravens. Well, as the legend goes anyway.

timson Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 My mother tells me that when i was a wee one i wouldsit in my room looking up and talking to something that wasn't there. Sometimes she got really freaked out and would grab me and take me to another room. I can't remember any of this, but it apparently happened a lot, talking to things that weren't there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 How do you make a Ouiji board? ..........Take away his bottle of Buckfast.I need a big sit down after reading that...Anyway, on a related subject, this forum -> paranormal Threads - Forum Tags by Zoints is quite an interesting read in terms of debunking what people can perceive as paranormal activity. Plus, there is your fair share of mentals, including one who claims he can change his blood type at will, despite never having his blood type checked.

666 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Coincidentally, I went on a little ghost trail with my friend last night.Unfortunately, we saw no ghosts.This probably has to do with the fact that I don't believe in ghosts. Not the traditional definition of a ghost anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palmer_eldritch Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 I once saw an old lady walking through my mates bedroom one night. . . At a later date another person saw her sitting on the rocking chair at the back of the room. Numerous spooky things happened in that house.The moorings bar - now there's an interesting place for ghosts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brymon Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 My Bro, reckoned our old house was haunted. A couple of spooky things happened to me but nothing that couldn't be explained. However Chi666 (my bro) did have a very spooky episode one night! Ill get him on here to tell his story! Although nothing happened to my other bro when he stayed there so it might just be that Chi is a little pussy. I dunno, i only know that when my mum and dad came home that night the terror on his face was real.Other than that don't think i've seen one. I though i saw someone standing in my kitchen when i went for a piss, but i put that down to the mind playing tricks!(My bathroom is beside the kitchen, i didn't go for a piss in the kitchen! Just thought i would clear that up)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Mac Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 My old flatmate often used to go for a piss in the kitchen, or the hall, or the living room. He wasn't fussy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
